padlocks at night\u00a0for fear\u00a0that intruders\u00a0will pry\u00a0the gates open using crowbars\u00a0or by some\u00a0equally nefarious means.\u00a0This often\u00a0has the unwanted\u00a0side-effect of\u00a0users forgetting about the padlock and consequently trying to activate the gate while the lock is still in place, causing considerable\u00a0damage.\u00a0 Enter the\u00a0ARMADA electric gate lock.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Gate automation<\/strong> is the final bastion when it comes to keeping criminals out of your property and safeguarding you and your family.\u00a0 <strong>But how secure is your automated gate really?<\/strong>\u00a0 Modern criminals will stop at nothing to get to your valuables, they have become smarter and more resourceful and a truly failsafe system is needed to ward them off.<\/p>\n<p>The word \u201cArmada\u201d means armed.\u00a0 It conjures up images of the proud and nearly\u00a0<strong>indestructible <\/strong>Spanish naval fleet and it has always been associated with the military, with dedicated task forces, with defence.\u00a0 But without the mettle to back them up these words are just that, words.\u00a0 That is why the ARMADA gate lock, constructed from tough <strong>Grade 304 stainless steel<\/strong> and capable of withstanding up to <strong>750kg of applied force<\/strong> \u2013 making it much stronger than the more traditional magnetic locks &#8211; is all the security your automated gate will ever need.\u00a0 It has become all too easy for intruders to pry open both sliding and\u00a0swing gates using crowbars or other instruments, and equally easy for them to simply lift your gate off the rail or bend the rack straight.\u00a0\u00a0 This has left many home- and business owners resorting to bulky padlocks and chains to secure their gates at night; a method that is not only unsightly and in most cases unreliable, it can also cause severe damage to\u00a0 your gate motor if it is inadvertently left on and the motor activated.<\/p>\n<p>The ARMADA\u2019s design allows for it to be <strong>incorporated into your existing swing or sliding gate<\/strong>, it is completely <strong>inconspicuous and as dependable as gravity<\/strong>!\u00a0 The <strong>slam lock action\u00a0<\/strong>means that the lock engages the moment your gate is closed, and all it takes to release it is a short pulse from your existing remote control.\u00a0 Besides the amazing security and peace of mind offered by the lock, it offers a host of other features and benefits:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It <strong>only draws current when activated<\/strong>, which means there are no expensive electricity bills<\/li>\n<li>The lock is supplied with \u00a0a <strong>key operated, failsafe manual override\u00a0<\/strong>incorporating in case of a power failure<\/li>\n<li>Fitting the ARMADA to sliding gates <strong>eliminates the need for anti-lift brackets<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Stainless steel construction<\/strong> &#8211; ideal for coastal regions<\/li>\n<li><strong>Not reliant on automation<\/strong> \u2013 also suited for manually operated gates<\/li>\n<li><strong>No additional interfaces or relays necessary<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Unlocks just before the gate is opened and re-locks when the gate closes<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bolt action<\/strong> ensures<strong> secure locking<\/strong> of double leaf or single leaf, swing gate systems<\/li>\n<li><strong>High-volume capability<\/strong>, so it is ideal for both <strong>residential and commercial<\/strong>, as either <strong>new or retrofit<\/strong> installations<\/li>\n<li><strong>Low-force lock engagement<\/strong> ensures reliable operation even at the tip of a wide gate<\/li>\n<li>Models available for <strong>swing gates and sliding gates<\/strong> in both <strong>left hand and right hand configurations<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>12V DC<\/strong> <strong>operation<\/strong> with optional power failure protection<\/li>\n<li>Instant security as <strong>lock automatically engages when gate is closed<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Optional mounting box<\/strong> for easy installation onto gate frame<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Installers used to be wary about installing any sort of solenoid lock because of their rather dubious reputation for burning out when exposed to a long pulse, but they can now rest easy knowing that the ARMADA comes with a <strong>current limiting interface already installed<\/strong>.<br \/>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image
